ChessBase for iPad

Hello. I just purvhased ChessBase for iPad in the hope to use it to build my repertoire. I must say i am quite disappointed. All i see is number of games playedd for each moes in the database, and a pecentage score. I believe the percentage score indicates the percentage of games won ( for white?for black?) with that move but not sure and found no indication whatsoe.

Does anyone use it? Any tips on how to leerage it efficiently?

I've got the iPhone version and can confirm that it too is terrible.  I was really disappointed when they released their Android app, because it looked really strong with some great features -- none of which has migrated to the ios version in any meaningful way.

I can also confirm that the percentage score shown for each move always indicates the success of that move from White's perspective.  So, if you're building a White repertoire, take a close look at moves with high percentages; and if you're building a Black repertoire, look for "low" scoring moves.

Thanks Tomomori. At least i can use it in part.

To my lind, the most annoying is how it goes back to the main menu when you go on standby...

I am curious about Chessbase for iPad. I have Chessbase on my PC and have recently purchased an iPad. When I use cb on my PC I am usually searching by position for what matches a game I have just played. Does the iPad version have this kind of search? I can find nothing about the app on the Chessbase website.

No, you can't search for specific positions unfortunately.
